Explanation:

Answer. KCN is predominantly ionic and therefore both C and N are available for the donation of electron but the reaction occurs through carbon as C-C bonds are stronger than the C-N bond therefore attack occurs the carbon atom of the cyanide group forming alkyl cyanide as the main product.
